Led vs lead

I am unsure of the correct spelling in this sentence -The team is led by Jackson.

or

should it be - The team is lead by Jackson. ?

My research shows led being used as past and past participle, however, this is present tense. Can you help?

Thank you,

Denise

present tense True, but it's present tense passive , so that's why it has the past participle led . The team is led by Jackson. CJ
